Changed some BIOS settings, after restarting, no visible BIOS on HP Envy h8-1514eo

Product name: HP Envy h8-1514eo

Operating system: Windows 8 64-bit

I've been playing with some settings in the BIOS menu to activate the integrated Intel video card and at the same time to disable the nVidia card. I entered the settings menu to start, I think, and the 'advanced options', I chose 'Device Options '. I don't remember the exact path.

In the "Device Options" menu, I changed the following (the previous values are in parenthesis):

Embedded video: enable (disable)

Configuration of the PCI graphics:

NVIDIA VGA controller: No bootable (primary VGA device)

Controller Intel VGA: VGA primary (unit Non-boot)

After you save the changes and restart, I can is nothing, only a black screen, see until Windows 8 starts finally. Restart of Windows 8 and by choosing to enter the UEFI boot menu, according to me, it does, it's just that I can't see it. If for example I knocked right 'ESC' key and the 'Enter' key, it starts with Windows 8 new (what I guess, is that I first the "discard changes and exit" which I confirm with "Enter".)

My question is: how to revert the changes I made in the above BIOS as I am unable to see the BIOS menu entries and do not know where to find the options I changed earlier?

Thank you in advance.

Kind regards

Veroslav

Managed to solve it blindly as follows

Hold down f10 during a boot for a while

Assume that "feature" was selected by default.

Has assumed the following file menu structure)

Information System, about, Set Time and Date, apply default and exit...)

Arrow down to x 4

Enter x 2

On the next reboot I got the (visible) start BACK menu.

SOLVED.

  • Vista Home Basic - changing the settings after restart

    1. I need to use the mouse with my left hand, so I swap the buttons in the control panel.   However, If I restart Windows, the keys are not exchanged.  I changed the registry key, but I do not do this.

    2. I set the control panel to display a list of items, not the icons, but it is up to the icons, whenever I close.  I use the classic look.

    3. I put the mouse pointer to go automatically to the default button in a dialog box.  It does in the majority of cases, but many there no, Notepad for example. I guess it's to do with the show but y at - it a fix for Notepad, for example?

    Does he know about fixes for these problems (I have installed all the updates I don't know).

    original title: Vista Home Basic - boring bugs

    Go to start / Control Panel / file settings / display and check the box then remember each folder view settings.  That should fix the problem with the Control Panel views (but to be honest, I'm not sure that it will work with control panel because it is another type of folder - but it's worth a try).  If this does not work, I don't know how to get the system to keep the details of opening view (this is the only control that I know to keep folder settings).  For what it's worth, this does not happen on my system - when I put on the details and close it, then open it it is still in the Details view.  I have 32 bit Vista Business SP2 but I don't think this should make no difference to the same problem.

    We will check your file system and hard drive for all the corruption that may cause this problem:

    Go to start / all programs / accessories / command prompt, right click command prompt and click Run as administrator (you can skip this step if you are using the disk).

    Type sfc/scannow, go and let it run.  It will scan and try to correct some of your system files.  If all goes well he comes complete with no corruption, it could not repair (if it has these post of corruption here or try to analyze it to find the problem or files using http://support.microsoft.com/kb/928228.  Try to put all the corrupt files here so that we can see if they can be repaired with good copies of the installation disc (unless there are too many).

    While in the command prompt, type chkdsk /f /r and enter and let it run.  It will scan and attempt to resolve any corruption or bad sectors on your hard drive and remove especially as a potential cause.

    If this does not work (or or show corruption it cannot repair), the only option I know eventually the problem is repair/system upgrade using the Windows Vista Installation disc authentic (you own or that you can borrow from someone).  Here is the procedure: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/88236-repair-install-vista.html.  Although this will not affect your data, settings or programs, you should always back up your data before you start just be on the safe side. You can have a lot of updates to re - install (including all you need to remove service packs).  If the version of the system came with SP1 or SP2 preinstalled and the disc is an earlier version, then you will need to make a record of slipstream as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/151606-vista-sp1-slipstream-installation-dvd.html.  The decision is yours, if you want to go through that much trouble to fix this (assuming you have the disc).

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    It seems that your left mouse button problem is already solved by changes to the registry.  I don't know why it didn't keep its settings just to configure in Control Panel - that's what's supposed to happen (not what happened to you).

    The other problem with the mouse can be a problem with the individual programs (such as Notepad) or since you have detailed two separate problems with the mouse, it may have something to do with your mouse, software, firmware driver (or your mouse with Vista compatibility).  I would go to the manufacturer website and download the latest versions for your system and compatible with your version of Vista (making SURE it is compatible with Vista) and install them (or reinstall if you already have this version here).  There may be something to do with these elements to reinstall trouble.

    In Notepad, there is no solution for this problem.  There is no separate for Notepad - download this is the part of the operating system and re - install you will need to re - install the complete operating system (and who may not even solve the problem). What you said about it being a problem specific to the programs is probably correct - especially if she does not work in most of the programs (and I've never seen a mouse pointers control feature in any program I have ever used - it is assumed that is controlled globally of the settings in the control panel).

    Sorry, this was not in fact of great help (unless the mouse, software drivers and firmware option works).

    Good luck!

  • Changing the unexpected settings after update

    HI - George here in Rhode Island.

    I have Windows 7 Ultimate 64 bit and whenever I do a "reboot" or (I think) an update causes a reboot; my 'games' (hearts + Spider Solitaire) revert to the default settings. The "Display-bubble" option is checked and all the names of the other players return to the "North-South and West. No other user profile settings are changed.

    I know that this is a trivial question, but it's driving me crazy! I found a reference to this line that suggested Roxio Creator may be the cause, but removal of Roxio did not fix the issue.

    I found a solution that worked for me!

    My problem was when I tried to change the import settings after inserting my memory of cameras
    stick. It offering me the opportunity to go to import the settings. If I could change the location
    imported illustrations...

    After scanning a document to save (nothing to do with) image + video import dialogue box shows
    To the top! And does not immediately start importing, so I was able to click on the import settings and get
    the dialog box import settings.

    I clicked on the parameter area for the scanner and I get a choice of devices to change the settings of.
    Cameras and portable is here. !! By clicking on that gives me the window I can ck the __Prompt of the box for a tag on import.
    I do this press 'OK '.

    Then I get a box of photos and videos to import saying for these changes to take effect, import pictures and
    videos will now be restarted. Click on 'OK' to find
    Scanner: Operation is not successful the device is not ready. I click 'OK' on this box

    After that, I will go back to load pictures from my camera memory stick and import of images + videos box
    remains on the screen, so I'm able to get import settings.

  • Firefox unresponsive after restarting my computer after having made changes in the settings of the history and cookies

    I have some changes to cookies and erased my story for today... and then restarted my computer... now that firefox does not open... will not respond... should I uninstall firefox and then reinstall?

    If I uninstall firefox will be reversed the changes I made with cookies and my story?

    If I was to uninstall and reinstall firefox will lose my bookmarks if I do this? or firefox remembers them... so when I reinstall the previous bookmark is too reinstalled?

    Is - this Firefox starts when you open first after the computer restarts, but crashes the next time that you try to start? If Yes, then there is a bug in Firefox 29 where Firefox crashes out when the parameter ' delete history closing Firefox "is selected, so that you get an error" running but not responding do not "next time you ttry to launch. In this case, end the firefox.exe process in Windows Task Manager (or restart the computer) and then reset your Firefox Privacy options and UNCHECK the option «Clear history of Firefox closing» See this article for more details:
    Privacy, historical settings of navigation and-no-track

    If this isn't the problem and Firefox still open even after restarting the computer, then try to boot mode safe of Firefox by holding down the SHIFT key when you start Firefox. If Firefox starts then read Troubleshooting extensions, themes and problems of hardware acceleration to resolve common Firefox problems to narrow down the cause.

    You can set the default BIOS ONLY inside the BIOS access BIOS by pressing F2 or at the beginning of the initialization of the order

    But I doubt that this problem is related to the BIOS.
    Maybe it s just a simple bad luck that this problem happened exactly after change something in the BIOS.
